Account Based Marketing

What is Account Based Marketing, after all?

B2B Marketers write down pitches, e-mails, and tons of kickass promotional content. Decide on the platform to promote and end up focusing on a big net of target buyers.
They make two BIG mistakes (as big as the net, you know!):

They target a vast net of buyers and try to appeal as many companies as possible; or

They aren’t marketing to the targeted buyer the damn right way

Basically – Write. Decide. Target. Repeat! This must definitely sound familiar to you?
Account Based Marketing is a strategic and smart way which has replaced the traditional sales funnel.

With the implementation of B2B Account Based Marketing, the sales and marketing resources are able to identify that one target account (these are businesses) they have to woo. They start to think of the target audience as one single person and then create personalized campaigns which talk the language of their target buyer.

This way, your potential buyer start to relate to your brand and see your product as a “solution” to their problems.
Hence, it is named account (target) based marketing.The name says it all.

97% business agreed that Account Based Marketing had higher or much higher ROI than other marketing tactics.
